When I did riddle 4, my loop was "for i in range(320)", and I had a break
condition as well (if I didn't find a number of the right form).  The break
condition triggered before the for loop exhausted its range.

If you saw the line with two numbers, and you modified your code so that it only
picks up the right one, then you should be able to solve the riddle, I think..
